2. Introduction

2.3 Design

DN 15-50The Nexus Valve Passim is installed in the return line. The supply line pressure is channeled above the diaphragm of the Nexus Valve Passim valve through a capillary tube, connected to a partner valve like the Nexus Valve Fluctus, Nexus Valve Vertex or in some instances just to a T-piece in the system. When system pressure increases, it also increases above the internal diaphragm of the Nexus Valve Passim, forcing the spindle downwards and thereby closing the valve gradually. As a result a constant pressure drop is obtained across the circuit controlled by the Nexus Valve Passim.

DN 65-80The Nexus Valve Passim is installed either in the supply or the return line. The supply line pressure is channeled above the diaphragm and the return line pressure under the diaphragm, through capillary tubes. One capillary tube can be connected to a partner valve like the Nexus Valve Fluctus or to a T-piece in the system, and the other capillary tube to the flange of the Nexus Valve Passim valve. When system pressure increases, it also increases above the internal diaphragm of the Nexus Valve Passim, forcing the cone downwards and thereby closing the valve gradually. The result is a constant pressure drop obtained across the circuit controlled by the Nexus Valve Passim. Without the actuator the valve is held in an open position by means of a spring. With force applied on the spindle, the valve will close.

2.4 Pressure balancing

DN 15-50The Nexus Valve Passim is provided with a selection of actuators for different pressure ranges. Depending on the actuator type the Nexus Valve Passim is factory pre-set at:

An Allen key is used for differential pressure setting of the Nexus Valve Passim. The black handle enables flow isolation.

By using an Allen key any setting within the differential pressure range can be provided. The flow is isolated by rotating the black handle.

2. Introduction

2.5 With partner valve

DN 15-50The Nexus Valve Passim can be used in combination with the Nexus Valve Vertex with drain, as a partner valve. In this case the capillary tube is connected to the Nexus Valve Vertex valve installed in the supply line. The pre-setting of the differential pressure is set by use of an Allen key in the Nexus Valve Passim valve and the design flow is then set on the Nexus Valve Vertex valve. When the capillary tube is connected to the drain valve on the P/T pont with the greater measured pressure, the Nexus Valve Vertex valve is inside the circuit controlled by the Nexus Valve Passim valve. In this case the pressure loss across the Nexus Valve Vertex valve must be added to the pressure loss in the controlled circuit and needs to be taken into account when setting the Nexus Valve Passim. When the capillary tube is connected to the drain valve on the P/T port with the lower measured pressure, the Nexus Valve Vertex valve is outside the circuit controlled by the Nexus Valve Passim valve.

The Nexus Valve Passim combined with the Nexus Valve Vertex as a partner valve.

The Nexus Valve Passim valve can also be used in combination with the Nexus Valve Fluctus with drain, as a partner valve. In this case the capillary tube is connected to the Nexus Valve Fluctus installed in the supply line. The pre-setting of the differential pressure is made as mentioned above, while the design flow can be easily and precisely set when measuring the direct flow – utilising the unique measuring feature of the Nexus Valve Fluctus. When the Nexus Valve Fluctus is used as a partner valve it is always in the circuit controlled by the Nexus Valve Passim valve. The pressure loss across the Nexus Valve Fluctus must therefore be added to the pressure loss in the controlled circuit and needs to be taken into account when setting the Nexus Valve Passim valve. The Nexus Valve Passim can also be installed in combination with the Nexus Valve Relax with drain to maintain constant differential pressure, service the controlled part of the system and measure the flow.

DN 65-80Nexus Valve Passim can be used in combination with a Nexus Valve Fluctus with drain, as a partner valve. In this case one capillary tube is connected to the Nexus Valve Fluctus and the other capillary tube to the flange of the Nexus Valve Passim. The pre-setting of the differential pressure is set by use of the regulating knob on the Nexus Valve Passim valve and the design flow is then set on the Nexus Valve Fluctus valve.

The Nexus Valve Passim combined with a Nexus Valve Fluctus as a partner valve.

When the Nexus Valve Fluctus is used as a partner valve and installed in the supply line, it is within the circuit controlled by the Nexus Valve Passim. In this case the pressure loss across the Nexus Valve Fluctus valve adds to the pressure loss in the controlled circuit and needs to be taken into account when setting the Nexus Valve Passim valve.

The Nexus Valve Passim DN 65 - 80 can be installed in the return line. Pressure loss across the Nexus Valve Fluctus (partner valve) is added to the pressure loss in the controlled circuit.

When the Nexus Valve Fluctus is used as a partner valve and installed in the return line, it is outside the circuit controlled by the Nexus Valve Passim. Consequently its pressure loss is not taken into account when setting the Nexus Valve Passim.

The Nexus Valve Passim DN 65 - 80 can be installed in the supply line. Pressure loss across the Nexus Valve Fluctus (partner valve) is not added to the pressure loss in the controlled circuit.

2. Introduction

2.6 Mounting

Nexus Valve Passim DN15-50

The Nexus Valve Passim valve must always be installed in the return line. No straight piping is required before and after the Nexus Valve Passim. It can be installed directly on bends and flexible hoses, etc.

System flushing is to be done before the capillary tube is mounted. The capillary tube is connected onto the Nexus Valve partner valve (or a T-piece) on the supply side. It has to be flushed to ensure that there is no air left. The capillary tube is then mounted onto the Nexus Valve Passim and thus the differential pressure controller is active.

The setting of the differential pressure is done by using an Allen key and counting the number of complete turns. The turns are to be performed clockwise, from the first (pre-set) position of:5.0 kPa for Nexus Valve Passim 5-25 kPa,20 kPa for Nexus Valve Passim 20-40 kPa14 kPa for Nexus Valve Passim 20-65 kPa35 kPa for Nexus Valve Passim 35-75 kPa60 kPa for Nexus Valve Passim 60-100 kPa

The setting tables indicate how many turns of the (4 mm) Allen key are required to achieve the desired Nexus Valve Passim setting. No more turns than stated in the tables must be performed counting from the first position.

When using a flowmeter the differential pressure across the riser or zone can be determined. After connecting the flowmeter to the high pressure port on the Nexus Valve Fluctus (or the Nexus Valve Vertex) and to the drain valve of the Nexus Valve Passim, the manometer will display the pressure drop across the riser and the partner valve. When a Nexus Valve Fluctus is used as a partner valve, its pressure drop is always included in the circuit controlled by the Nexus Valve Passim valve. When using a Nexus Valve Vertex as a partner valve, it is important to check if the pressure drop across the valve is included in the circuit controlled by the Nexus Valve Passim valve or not (this depends into which of the two Nexus Valve Vertex measuring points the flowmeter needle is inserted).

When the system is pressure tested, the capillary tube must be connected and all valves in the circuit after the Nexus Valve Passim valve opened. This is required to secure the same static pressure on both sides of the diaphragm in order to avoid damaging the differential pressure controller.

Maximum test pressure is 25 bar.

Isolation of the system flow by means of the Nexus Valve Passim is done by turning the black handle clockwise until the valve is fully closed. To avoid damaging the differential pressure controller during isolation the pressure drop across the valve should never exceed 250 kPa. An alternative is to dismount the capillary tube on one side before isolating the valve to protect the differential pressure controller. When valves are shut off, the secondary side of the system can be drained through the 3/4” externally threaded drain valve on the Nexus Valve Passim. The end cap needs to be removed, hose attached and the ball valve opened to enable draining.

Nexus Valve Passim DN65-80

An arrow on the Nexus Valve valve housing indicates the flow direction to be respected.The Nexus Valve Passim can be installed in any position in the return or in the supply line.

No straight piping is required before and after the Nexus Valve Passim. It can be installed directly on bends and flexible hoses, etc.

System flushing and pressure testing is to be done before the actuator and the capillary tubes are mounted. The Nexus Valve Passim is normally open when the actuator is not mounted.Maximum system pressure is 16 bar.

After the installation of the actuator and the capillary tubes, the diaphragm chamber has to be vented by bleeding through the vent plugs.

The setting of the differential pressure is done by turning the regulating knob. The edge of the knob indicates the required differential pressure on the actuator scale.

When using a flowmeter the differential pressure across the riser or zone can be determined. After connecting the flowmeter to the high pressure port on the partner valve (Nexus Valve Fluctus) and to the, provided as an accessory, drain valve installed in a T-piece, the flowmeter will display the pressure drop in the controlled circuit.

The Nexus Valve Passim valve does not incorporate a shut off function. It is recommended to install isolation valves to be able to service the controlled circuit.

2. Introduction

2.7 Operation

Depending on the application, the Nexus Valve Passim can either be used as a zone valve placed in risers or branches controlling a constant pressure difference across multiple terminal units, or as a terminal unit valve ensuring the required pressure drop across each terminal unit at all loads.

Radiator heating system with presettable thermostatic radiator valves.

The Nexus Valve Passim provides constant differential pressure across a motorized valve on a terminal unit.

When the Nexus Valve Passim valve is installed in combination with Nexus Valve Fluctus or Nexus Valve Vertex, the valves can be used as both a constant pressure regulator and as a maximum flow limiter. This ensures each zone or terminal unit the required pressure drop and that the designed flow will never be exceeded.

Radiator heating system with non-presettable thermostatic radiator valves.

Such a solution is widely used in radiator heating systems with non-presettable thermostatic radiator valves.

Page 17: Differential Pressure Control Valve Passim · (DPCV) DN 15 - 50 1/2 - 2” Nexus Valve Passim Differential Pressure Control Valve (DPCV) DN 65 - 80 2½ - 3” 2.1 Description DN 15-80

17

Nexus Valve Passim along with Nexus Valve Fluctus can be used to limit maximum flow in long branches with several terminal units. The flow distribution among the terminal units is ensured by the proper commissioning of static balancing valves and the operation of motorized valves.

System with terminal units controlled by a Nexus Valve Passim and balanced by a Nexus Valve Fluctus.

As Nexus Valve Passim ensures the required differential pressure for a circuit under all loads, it is possible to do project handovers in stages due to zone balancing – saving both time and money spent on re-commissioning. In practice parts of a building can be taken into use gradually as it is completed ensuring a cost effective handover of the entire project. Partial close-downs can also be done easily without influencing other parts of the system.

The Nexus Valve Passim will ensure no overflows and thereby no unnecessary energy consumption, and it will eliminate noise problems, providing a perfectly controlled system.

3. Applications

DN 15-50

Application 1 - Heating system with pre-settable thermostatic radiator valves

Differential pressure across the circuits is stabilised by using Nexus Valve Passim valves.

In systems with pre-settable thermostatic radiator valves (TRV), the stabilised differential pressure allows optimum conditions to control the room temperature. By pre-setting the TRV valves, flow is limited and overflow situations are avoided. Noise problems are at the same time also eliminated when using Nexus Valve Passim valves.

Application 2 - Heating system with non-presettable thermostatic radiator valves

Differential pressure across the circuits is stabilised using Nexus Valve Passim valves. Some systems are equipped with non-presettable thermostatic radiator valves (TRV). Such installations are hard to regulate properly, and significant overflow situations can occur. The Nexus Valve Passim will stabilise the differential pressure across a circuit and provide proper conditions to control the room temperature. When installed with a Nexus Valve Fluctus or a Nexus Valve Vertex as partner valve, the maximum flow can be limited to design flow rate. Overflow situations in the circuit are thereby avoided. This will not provide the correct distribution of flow among the radiators, but it will improve the system performance substantially. Noise nuisances are at the same time also eliminated when using Nexus Valve Passim valves.

Application 3A - Central heating system with Nexus Valve Passim and Nexus Valve Vertex

The Nexus Valve Vertex valve and the Nexus Valve Passim differential pressure control valve can be connected in a way so that the Nexus Valve Vertex valve is inside the circuit controlled by the Nexus Valve Passim valve. This is done when the capillary tube from the Nexus Valve Passim valve is connected to the drain valve at the P/T port of the Nexus Valve Vertex valve with the higher measured pressure. This application is common for heating systems with non-presettable thermostatic radiator valves. In this case the pressure loss across the Nexus Valve Vertex valve needs to be taken into account when setting the Nexus Valve Passim differential pressure control valve. The flow obtained across the Nexus Valve Vertex valve is kept constant due to the constant differential pressure obtained (as long as there is no load change required from the terminal units).

3. Applications

Application 3B - Central heating system with Nexus Valve Passim and Nexus Valve Vertex

The Nexus Valve Vertex valve and the Nexus Valve Passim differential pressure control valve can be connected in a way so that the Nexus Valve Vertex valve is outside the circuit controlled by the Nexus Valve Passim valve. This is done when the capillary tube from the Nexus Valve Passim valve is connected to the drain valve at the P/T plug of the Nexus Valve Vertex valve with the lower measured pressure. This application is common for heating systems with pre-settable thermostatic radiator valves. The Nexus Valve Vertex valve can in this application be used as a measuring valve to check if the pre-setting made on the thermostatic radiator valves is correct and if the designed flow is achieved. The Nexus Valve Vertex valve is in this application typically fully open or in a position providing just enough pressure loss required for flow measurement. In this way the pressure loss in the system is kept low.

21

Application 4 - Central heating system with the Nexus Valve Passim and the Nexus Valve Relax

The Nexus Valve Relax “shut-off valve”can be used as a partner valve to the Nexus Valve Passim. This combination is suitable for systems with presettable thermostatic radiator valves. The individual flow is set on the thermostatic radiator valve, whereas the flow for the riser can be verified on the Nexus Valve Relax provided that the pressure loss across its measuring points is at least 3.0 kPa. The Nexus Valve Relax can be inside or outside the controlled by the Nexus Valve Passim part of the system.

Application 5 - Heating system with differential pressure control valves on risers and manual balancing valves on sub-circuits

A Nexus Valve Passim on each riser provides a stable differential pressure from the main pipe to the risers and to the sub-circuits. A Nexus Valve Fluctus or a Nexus Valve Vertex on each sub-circuit prevents overflow situations.

The differential pressure limitation function of the Nexus Valve Passim valve will furthermore prevent noise problems in the system.

22

3. Applications

Application 6 - Cooling system with differential pressure control valves on branches and manual balancing valves on terminal units

In a system with a high concentration of small terminal units, the differential pressure can be stabilised across a group of terminal units using the Nexus Valve Passim. Nexus Valve Fluctus or Nexus Valve Vertex on each terminal unit limit at the same time the flow according to design conditions. The differential pressure control of the Nexus Valve Passim valve will furthermore prevent noise problems in the system.

Application 7 - Underfloor heating system

In a system with several underfloor heating manifolds the differential pressure is stabilized by use of Nexus Valve Passim on each branch. The flow adjustment in one manifold will not affect the flow in the remaining manifolds.

Nexus Valve Fluctus or Nexus Valve Vertex will ensure the designed flow in every manifold. As a result of this, system commissioning is easy, allowing time and cost savings, and the design flow is never exceeded.

Application 8 - Flat station and district heating system

Nexus Valve Passim can be installed in systems with flat stations. In this type of application flow fluctuations, due to a significant difference between heat consumption for domestic hot water production and for heating purpose, is a typical problem. By installing Nexus Valve Passim the differential pressure is stabilized in every section of the system. The Nexus Valve Passim ensures that a changed flow in one section of the system does not affect the flow and operation of the remaining part of the system.

The same function as above applies to district heating systems. Nexus Valve Passim installed in district heating substations will provide stable working conditions for motorized valves on heat exchangers. As a result motorized valves operate only in reference to the changing heat load and not to compensate for fluctuating pressure in the district heating system.

3. Applications

DN 65-80The Nexus Valve Passim DN 65 and DN 80 can be used in applications 1-8 as well as in the following ones:

Application 9 - Precise temperature control in air handling units

When temperatures have to be kept within close limits like in ventilating plants, control may be difficult if the differential pressure in the system is not constant. This may be overcome by installing a Nexus Valve Passim which stabilizes the differential pressure across the motorized valve. As a result the motorized valve reacts only on temperature signals and not on pressure fluctuations.

Application 10 - Precise temperature control in domestic water and central heating systems

The Nexus Valve Passim valve will in a hot water tank circuit (heat exchanger) or in a central heating system maintain a constant differential pressure across the motorized valve. By providing a stable working condition the motorized valve reacts only on the temperature signal and does not have to compensate for pressure fluctuations.

Application 11 - Pressure relief by pump or supply and return line by-pass

The Nexus Valve Passim can be used in by-pass around pumps or across the supply and return lines of a circuit. This prevents the pump from working against a dead head when all the subcircuits are closed down.

Note: For this application the Nexus Valve Passim with reverse acting valve needs to be ordered. The valve is provided on request only!

The Nexus Valve Passim can be installed in the return or the supply line. Installation in the return line is preferable where there is a risk of air in the system, and in high buildings where the pressure in the return pipe does not considerably exceed the static pressure. For low buildings (and high pressures) it is preferable to install the Nexus Valve Passim in the supply line to reduce the pressure in terminal units.

The minimum required ΔPa for each valve set is calculated as follows: ΔPa = ΔPbv + ΔPc + ΔPpassim

DN 20 Min. ΔPa = 6.5 kPa + 20 kPa + 33 kPa = 59.5 kPaDN 25 Min. ΔPa = 3.5 kPa + 20 kPa + 13 kPa = 36.5 kPaDN 32 Min. ΔPa = 1.2 kPa + 20 kPa + 5 kPa = 26.2 kPaTo ensure the best functionality of the Nexus Valve Passim, the smallest possible valve is selected. However, the DN 20solution requires minimum ΔPa of 59.5 kPa to operate properly, and the system provides a ΔPa of only 50 kPa.Therefore the DN 25 valve is selected with an 20-40 kPa actuator. The correct ΔP setting on the Nexus Valve Passim is: ΔPbv + ΔPc = 3.5 kPa + 20 kPa = 23.5 kPaTo make sure the Nexus Valve Passim valve will keep the required differential pressure (ΔPc + ΔPbv) [kPa] constant within the circuit at flow 0.4 l/s, the product data sheets must be consulted.

A Nexus Valve Passim and a Nexus Valve Vertex are in this example sized to the following conditions:The designed branch flow controlled by the Nexus Valve Passim valve is 0.15 l/s (540 l/h).The available system differential pressure (ΔPa) is 35 kPa.The required branch differential pressure (ΔPc) is 15 kPa.The system has radiators with pre-settable thermostatic radiator valves installed. The flow can therefore be adjusted on the thermostatic radiator valves and the Nexus Valve Vertex can be installed outside the circuit controlled by the Nexus Valve Passim. Pressure loss across the Nexus Valve Vertex is not taken into account when setting the Nexus Valve Passim. The Nexus Valve Vertex must be in a fully open position.

The suitable Nexus Valve Fluctus partner valves are selected based on the flow diagrams in chapter 3.1. It is recom-mended that the valve setting at the required flow is as close to the fully open position as possible. This enables the valve to operate at the required authority, and any valve setting change will result in a high pressure loss for precise flow adjustment:Nexus Valve Fluctus DN 65, ΔPbv = 5.3 kPa valve fully open (see chapter 3.1 - 59)Nexus Valve Fluctus DN 80, ΔPbv = 4.0 kPa valve in position 3.5 (see chapter 3.1 - 61))
